My husband and I were looking at investment properties when we came across one of Maria's listings. From our initial phone call to arrange to view the property, negotiation with the vendor and right through until settlement, Maria kept us up to date and fully informed of every aspect of our purchase. We were impressed with her knowledge, professionalism and honesty and would have no hesitation in recommending Maria. Thank you!
Selling the family home is a difficult thing to do Maria got on and did the job with minimum fuss and now it's done. The selling price achieved was at our expectations.
Maria came recommended and with good reason. We are time poor and it was reassuring to know that everything was taken care of in a professional courteous and prompt manner. Maria developed the right sales strategy and the property was sold for the right price in a few short weeks. Beyond the initial contract, Maria assisted us every step of the way with the process. We highly recommend Maria Di Claudio to sell you property.
From the outset Maria was a standout. I had done my research, met with 3 other agents, comparing their services, 'sales pitch', and personal approach against the other, with the latter being of most importance to me. Maria captured my attention through her local knowledge, lack of a sales pitch, the fact she genuinely listed to me as well as appreciating my position. In short, I needed to sell quickly, and this was indeed the outcome, with a price above what I had hoped for! Maria released my property online on the Tuesday afternoon with an inspection on Wednesday and a subsequent inspection on Saturday, which led to multiple offers, resulting in my house being sold in a week! This was possible thanks to Maria listening to my needs and recognising the restraints attached to my situation, her efficient planning, local knowledge, and frankly the ability to just get in and get it done! Maria kept me up to date throughout the process, even going out of her way on a Sunday, or a call/text after hours to put my mind at ease, which I didn't at all expect. If you're after an agent with a personal approach that will genuinely listen and take note of your needs, call Maria! Backstory - I contacted Maria initially for a spur of the moment appraisal prior to my tenant vacating, unsure whether I would sell or not. I told Maria I would get in contact with her once I had a clearer picture of my position, which she respected and didn't follow up with a phone call, text or email each day/week, which was the case with other agents. I simply was not ready to sell, and Maria took that for exactly what it was, which was refreshing. I was upfront with all agents that I met with, in that I was shopping around, and the approach of some other agents was embarrassing, to say the least. When I decided to sell, I met with Maria again following the other agents and it was clear she was the agent for me. Personally, having an agent who listens means more than any sales pitch could.
I found Maria very helpful and understanding. It has been a difficult time selling my fathers house and dealing with the estate matters but Maria has been sympathic and gone way beyond expectations. I woud thoroughly recommend Maria to all my family and friends.
Maria was always professional and a pleasure to deal with throughout the sales process, she kept us informed and passed on our questions and concerns when required.
I recently purchased a property through Maria at Dowling Mayfield. She went out of her way to open the home on a Sunday and was closely in contact throughout the entire process from viewing to end of the cooling off period. She kindly offered to provide recommendations for pest/building inspections and replied to all queries very promptly. Many agents I have dealt with so far have been severely lacking in customer service and interpersonal skills. Maria has gone out of her way to make buying my first home as easy as it can be!
My dealing with Maria was a smooth, fast and friendly. Talking to Maria and dealing with her feels like talking to a Friend. She was warm, knowledgeable and fast acting on your queries! Unlike some realestate agents sometimes don't bother to return your messages or calls. I would definitely recommend her and will request for her services if dealing with realestate.
Maria was great from start to finish with the sale of our property. We actually got more than we had expected so that made it even better. Marie communicated everything to us regularly and was also very cheery and helpful. She also always returned our calls and was very willing to explain anything that we queried. We would not hesitate to recommend Maria to anyone - she was also honest and upfront a rarity today with real estate agents.
Maria would have to be the best Agent I have dealt with, and I have dealt with a few over the past several years. She is friendly straight to the point and knows her job. Nothing is a problem to Maria, she has always got the best price for my property and I always recommend Maria to people that I know are going to sell or are looking for properties to buy. Over the years Maria and I have formed a friendship and I am so please I decided to sell my first property through Dowling Real Estate. Cheers Tracey Ball
I highly recommend Maria Di Claudio from Dowling Real Estate. Not only is she very professional, she has an empathy with her Clients that puts one at ease through one of the biggest decisions of selling. My home sold in 6 days after my first contact with Maria!
I had my home at Warabrookfor 20+ years, I thought I would sell in 2014, I called 3 Agents and Maria from Dowling Real Estate was the person I chose as she answered all my fears and questions. As my circumstances changed I withdrew my house from the market. December 2016 I was ready to sell my home, so I contacted Maria again as she out of 3 Agents I had previously had in my home was the only Agent who spent time with me in 2014, and explained all my options. So my home went on "The Market" professional photos were taken and off it went on the Market. 6 days later I had a buyer! Thankyou Maria for making this very hard decision so easy and painless. I highly recommend Maria from Dowling Real Estate, she was and is so professional!
